Can't send MMS messages... help!

I got a T-Mobile MDA with a Cingular ROM running on Cingular with the correct MMS settings. Every time I try and send an MMS, it will attempt to send it then go "Unable to send the message, message will remain in your outbox"

I have the MediaNet unlimited plan so all should be good to go... anyone?

My friend actually had the same problem when he switched from the Date Plan to the Medianet. He just called up customer service and they help him run through the problem. I guess you have to configure something. I have no idea how to do it but just call up customer service.

I'm having the same problem, I went to cingular's support site, but they don't have the MDA MMS settins listed there, only ATT 8525 MMS settings. I tried using those settings, as the menu's look identical, but I don't think my sim is connected to ATT towers. I will continue searching, but if anyone knows the settings, please post

Ok, so I found the settings in the Cingular forums. This is for a T-mobile MDA (WIZA200) on cingular(orange) networks:

Configuring MMS settings on the Cingular 8125

SUBJECT:
Configuring MMS settings on the Cingular 8125

FACT:
Cingular 8125
Windows Mobile 5.0

SYMPTOM:
Messaging-MMS

FIX:
Cingular 8125 Keypad Layout

Prerequisite: "wap.cingular" must be configured as the "Access point name."

NOTE: The Cingular 8125 images are depicted with the QWERTY keypad closed.

From the main screen on the device:

Tap Start, then tap Messaging.

Tap Menu.

Tap MMS Configuration.

Under the "Preferences" tab, verify the following settings:

Retrieve messages immediately: checked
Download on home network only: optional. Recommended only while within the USA.
Save sent messages: optional
Reject all messages: optional
Allow delivery report: optional
Allow read report: optional
Use signature with this account: optional
Attempts before giving up: 3
Photo resolution: original

Tap the Servers tab.

Tap Cingular MMS (or whichever MMS profile you want to use)

Verify the following settings:

Server Name: Cingular MMS
Gateway: wireless.cingular.com
Port number: 80
Server address: http://mmsc.cingular.com
Connect via: MEdia Net
Sending size limitation: 300k (my mda only has a option for 292k, although this can be fixed via the registry i believe)
WAP Version: WAP 2.0

Tap OK.

Tap Set As Default.

Tap OK.

These worked flawlessly for me!

One thing I noticed on my 8525 is that the proxy has to be enabled to send messages.
